Find answers to common questions about our window film services, benefits, installation process, and maintenance.
Economy Glass Coating and Shade specializes in window films and coatings for both homes and offices. That includes solar-control films, security and safety films, decorative or privacy films, and specialized graphic films. We also do shades and rolling window shades as part of our service mix.
We operate in the Los Angeles, California area, and we take on both residential and commercial clients. However, we are not restricted to this area and serve many neighborhoods.
There are a lot of benefits:
• You reduce heat and glare from strong sunlight.
• UV rays are filtered out, which protects people inside and also reduces fading of furniture or flooring.
• Your windows can feel more secure — security films make the glass harder to break.
• Decorative films help with privacy while keeping a clean, modern look. Not only this, we can also customize films with elements and graphics.

Cost is not the same across the board. It depends on many factors like the size of windows, type of film, number of windows and if you want plain, security or decorative films. Do not worry because we come on the site, give you a fair and customized price as well.
It depends on the job size. A single residential window job may take a few hours. For a full commercial install, it could take a day or more. We plan carefully so that disruption is minimal.
Yes, we take supervision seriously. A manager is typically on-site during installation to make sure the job is done right, from surface prep to final finish.
Maintenance is not an issue. All you need to do is clean with a soft, lint free cloth and warm water. Do not use harsh chemicals and abrasive cleaners because they can damage the film. Avoid scrapers or razor blades as well on coated glass surfaces. Wipe or buff the glass gently; let it dry naturally when possible.
If installed correctly and maintained well, the film can last for many years. The lifetime warranty on the film helps protect your investment.
Yes. We do homes, offices, storefronts - any place that has glass we can offer solutions. Whether you want solar control on your living room windows or security film on your office windows, we can help.
